I'm a bit worried about my husband. He had a viral fever, cough, and weakness. Thankfully, his fever's gone, and his weakness has improved, but he still has this cough. When he coughs, he struggles with shortness of breath, and even when he tries to take deep breaths, it triggers his cough. He's currently on Gudcef 200 and Windose tablets, as prescribed by the doctor. Any advice on how we should handle this situation?

I was diagnosed with abdominal tuberculosis last month and I've been taking my meds as prescribed, but now my uric acid levels are up to 12.7. So my doctor stopped most of the TB meds and left me with just rcinex 600 and moximacgerdid. I've read that without taking the full set of TB meds like AKT4, the treatment might not fully work. Is it really okay if I stop taking Pyzina but keep the treatment going? I'm really worried about any future problems. Should I stick with rcinex 600 or should I switch back to taking AKT4?

stop pyzina tablet and continue the rest of the medicine

I'm experiencing something a little odd with my breathing. Most of the time, I can breathe normally, but whenever I try to take a really deep breath, it feels a bit difficult to fully inhale. It's not constant, only happens sometimes, but it's got me a bit worried. Is this something I should be concerned about? Any ideas on what might be causing it?

it might be due to anxiety, reduce stress
